Doc was robbed of a job he already proved he deserves.

I feel nothing for not getting a AAA Snake Eyes game, to be honest. It was going to be garbage. These idiots set themselves up and just decided to CALL themselves a 'AAA game studio' without ever having released a video game at all. The cinematic director helped on some Telltale (decidedly not AAA) stuff, and then moved over to Rocksteady and worked on Kill the Justice League; one of the most hated video games of the last 5 years. That's like.. his entire CV, mind you. From Telltale to one of the worst 'AAA' games in recent history. NOTHING else.

The fucking idiot calling himself the lead designer? He was Quality Assurance on a bunch of games. Literally a play-tester writing logs of any bugs or janky elements. He's NEVER made a game before.


But these two guys qualified themselves as a 'AAA game studio.' Anyone looking forward to that Snake Eyes game was 10,000% going to end up disappointed, no matter what.

Hasbro has opened and closed like three game studios over the past five years. They can't decide if they want to be in the game business or not, just like they can't decide if they want to be in the movie business or not. They really need to acknowledge what worked with BG3 - farm out the IP to a studio that wants to do a killer job and GIVE THEM TIME TO GET IT RIGHT. But they won't. So yeah, zero chance that Snake Eyes game would have been good, so no great loss.

I am teetering on depressed about the file cards :D And whoever wrote them cannot take a single word of credit for Airtight, that's word for word Larry's work from the OG card. I've got that fucker memorized.
 
Credit where credit's due, the new cards are infinitely better written than those middle-years post Larry when they were truly terrible.
